Denmark Case farm 1

Simple to overview – smooth to organize
In 2010, this farm had held an organic certification status for 19 years, was at 379 ha and had 180 cows per year, and had about 50 sheep and a big carrot production. The farm is run by a family, and the herd is primarily managed by a herd manager, who has been at the farm for almost 4 years (in 2010). They have seasonal calvings, and calves in big groups with outdoor access, and a low-cost housing system with no walls and deep litter bedding area. The principles of the farm are to make things quite simple and easy to overview and hand over between people, and smooth to organize. The herd has been managed based on a phasing-out-of-antibiotic strategy through improved health care.
